    Who rebuilds cranks?

    So I have managed to come into position of an ns400r. Unfortunately it came out from under a house with the motor in bits..

    Apparently the bottom end has gone but cant be sure, so the question is who is out there that can asses and repair the crank?

    Cheers

    +1 for Pete at Total in PN

    But you will have to do some research. Various bits are not available from Honda. Find ns400 forum perhaps.
    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.

    Head out hwy56. There's a gravel\sealed driveway to the left just before you get to a bridge over the river and a bit of a sign. He used to be in town.

    Does your cunning plan involve adapting other parts of the Honda variety to a certain rear area

    Small world eh

    only starts to work around 8,000 rpm range (thats the ns 250 r )
